Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Kari Rogers

My husband and I are born and raised in the Upper Peninsula. After my husbands 8 years in the Marine Corps, we moved back to our hometown. We spend our time working, raising three kids and filling the little time between those two with our friends and family. Like most families, we know how precious time can be and this lead us to purchasing a cabin to enjoy as a family.
Why they chose this property
As a former military family, we have been fortunate enough to travel the coasts of the United States and know firsthand how beautiful different areas of the country are. After staying in cabins in Big Bear, CA and the Shenandoah Mountains in Virginia, we knew we wanted to own a cabin ourselves. This lead us back to our native Upper Peninsula where in 2020 we fulfilled our dreams of purchasing a beautiful Lake Cabin.
